The Adrian Navy feels that all new technical rules of Formula 1 for 2026 may well lead an engine-series for some sessions, drawing similarities with 2014.
The Navy, which will join the Aston Martin team as the management of the technical partner in March, believes that there is a “big opportunity” that is one of the engine manufacturers designing more hybrid-oriented power units, the rest Will steal a march in the area, like a lot. When Hybrid Power Units were first introduced in 2014, Mercedes’ engine proved to be prominent.
Next year’s cars will have electricity units that will be away with highly complex and expensive MGU-HE electrical motors, but using permanent fuel, more prominent draws more energy from the MGU-K unit. Current DRS system will also have an overroid system to promote the cars while advancing the effects of the impact of the system.
“There should be a big chance that it is initially an engine formula,” Navy told the German publication auto motor UND Sport. “I can’t miss another time in Formula 1 when both the Chassis Rules and the Engine Rules have changed simultaneously, and where the rules of Chassis have been written too much in this case, which are trying to compensate It is said that for power unit regulations, it is an additional dimension.

“There should be a chance that a manufacturer will come out well on the top, and it will become a power-unit-cruel regulation, at least to start. There is a chance that if it is towards the combustion engine, So that is, that one comes with a major combustion engine that will run through the length of the formula, because the way the rules are written, it is quite difficult for those who are behind to catch.
“If it is on the electric side, if you are behind, there is a lot of catching potential. So customized, you can’t simply do a separate fuel chak in an engine that has not been adapted for it.”
Navy’s Future Squad Aston Martin is joining forces with Honda as his works engine partner, while Saudi Oil Company Aramco is providing sustainable fuel.
Audi is coming as a brand-new power unit manufacturer, after completing its acquisition Save Squad, while in collaboration with Red Bull Ford, Milton is manufacturing its own in-house engine at the Campus at Keins.

With current constructors Mercedes, Ferrari And Honda, a sixth manufacturer is ready to join the Grid in 2026 whenever General Motors brand cadilac is ready to produce its own engines, it is ready to join it, it is ready to join it. Has gone. Renault, meanwhile, has kept its power unit program with him. Alpine The team is becoming a Mercedes customer.
While engine regulations have been published for a long time, teams have been allowed only to enter their 2026 car design in the wind tunnel since the year turn of technical regulations at the end of last year. .
The Navy said his main focus would be Aston Martin’s 2026 car as he gets up to move with new rules in March. “My concentration will be clearly at” 26, “he said. “There is no doubt that Lawrence (the owner of the walk, Aston) I would like me to join a little bit of ’25 car. Therefore, can I really contribute anything or not, I do not know when I do not know when I really contribute anything. I do not start.
“I have been out of Formula 1, in fact, since the end of April. I have very little knowledge of new rules. On the power-units side, the rules have been out for some time, but in the context of the chassis side, Aerodionamics and vehicle dynamics, then I do not have much knowledge, so it will be a rapid learning state when I start. “
